The Oxford Textbook of Paediatric Pain brings together an international team of experts to provide an authoritative and comprehensive textbook on all aspects of pain in infants, children and youth. Divided into nine sections, this resource analyses pain as a multifactorial problem and gives the reader a comprehensive understanding of this challenging subject. Topics covered include the biological, social, and psychological basis of pain, pain in specific populations, pain measurement, pharmacology, psychosocial and physical interventions, complementary therapies, education, and ethics of pain control in youths, children, and infants. Evidence-based chapters look in depth at areas ranging from the long-term effects of the pain in children, to sociodemographic differences in paediatric pain management. Case examples and online materials including scales, worksheets, and videos are provided to aid learning and illustrate the application of knowledge.Less
